...poignant chronicle, and Farrell has researched it down to the last palm-oil statistic. If only he had been content to write history instead of fiction. For the book is not so much imagined as documented. Plot developments, like Singapore rickshas, serve to convey the reader from one exhibit to another. On your right are the rubber industry warehouses, repositories of greed; ahead is Chinatown; up the hill is Tanglin the English colony's surrogate Surrey...
...have found the bones of a knuckle-walking ape called Dryopithecus, a creature that lived some 20 million years ago and is generally believed to have given rise to both apes and man. This ape's own ancestors seem likely to have lived in Africa as well. As Exhibit A, Duke University Anthropologist Elwyn Simons offered fossils, found near Cairo, of a tree-dwelling primate 30 million years old; Simons christened the creature Aegyptopithecus. Last week, however, a team of Burmese and American scientists created a stir in anthropological circles when they announced that they had found primate fossils...
Several continuing events provide an excellent excuse to spend a sunny reading period afternoon wandering around Boston (exams are weeks away...)

Seattle's Weekly (circ. 15,000) won a contract to print the program for the visiting King Tut exhibit, and the Ithaca (N. Y.) Times and the local Chamber of Commerce collaborate to publish a calendar every summer. There is even an alternative chain: the Times/Advocate Newspapers, with papers serving western Massachusetts (circ. 85,000), New Haven and Hartford, Conn, (each 75,000), and Syracuse (40,000). Launched...
...added ingredient is a local restaurateur, Vittorio Bruno (Cesare Siepi), who worships Carmelina and is shunned by her as if he were the prime exhibit in an article called "Italians Are Lousy Lovers." Opera Star Siepi has a voice of hurricane force, but he seems to have graduated from the formaldehyde school of acting. Carmelina's dances look like a jogger's nightmare. There are some songs that might bear rehearing-It's Time for a Love Song, One More Walk Around the Garden, I'm a Woman-but in some other musical. -T.E.Kalem
